The tail end of my daughter’s dance classes (when other parents arrive to pick up their kids) are always interesting for me from an Unschooling mother’s perspective. Granted, I’m almost always the ONLY parent who stays at my daughter’s classes (unless my husband takes her, in which case he is the only parent there), so [...]
It all started with our BIG storm in August 2008. Due to that storm and the damage that ensued, we’ve been trying to figure out how we wanted to fix it all. Well, just like in If You Give a Mouse a Cookie (one of our favorite children’s books) one thing has led to another [...]

I don’t mean to be criticizing Steve Spangler so much, especially because I adore his company and experiments and all he does for kids and science. However, his most recent e-mailed ad to me mentioned that agar was a beef product. This, in fact, is incorrect information. Note this misinformation on their “Growing Bacteria in [...]
I love these virtual only Webkinz pets. So when I saw the new pretty little Blossom Fish, I had to have one. I’ve been searching for the perfect pet to name Lantana (after one of my favorite flowers) and this fish fit the bill. She looks quite lovely in an outdoor room, but I think [...]
Similar to the Big Button of Kinzcash, several times a month Webkinz will have a lever to pull for everyone to get a W Shop coupon (it shows up in the daily activities as “Click here for a W Shop Coupon!”. I’ve heard a lot of kids say how boring these coupons are. I completely [...]
I’ve noticed that in our society, older lives are more valued than the youngest ones. Everyone is expected to be deferential and respectful of the elderly (no matter how they treat other people, nor how important they are to a situation). Yet, children are often ignored and treated rudely. When I go shopping, I almost [...]
Several years ago, one of my local homeschooling groups was encouraging kids to participate in a city-wide Science Fair. Since this sounded like great fun, I tried to talk my older daughter (then about 6 or 7) into participating (afterall, she’s always loved science based projects, why wouldn’t she love showing off one of her [...]
The Webkinz KinzCash Button seems to come around a time or two each month (sometimes more). We always push it if we’re home and know about it. Have you been wondering if it’s worth it? Here are some screen captures of our last few times of pushing this button. We definitely think it’s worth it! [...]
I’ve been spending the past few days planning an upcoming party (Super Star Trek Sunday) and doing some remodeling on my house, while still keeping up on all those normal things like laundry and dishes and cooking and sleeping and showering. It occurred to me that my family often has a couple of parties [...]
